We have a huge council house in our street. The extended family who live there is run by a woman with a pack of dogs. Her car isn't taxed or insured; it doesn't even have a number plate but the police do nothing about it.

Her old man is famous for upsetting foreigners with racist comments, it doesn't matter that he's an immigrant too, it's everyone who is not white is a target for his comments. A local shopkeeper blames him for ordering the murder of his son's girl-friend , but nothing has been proved.

Two of the kids have broken marriages and two grandsons who are supposed to be in the Army are always frequenting night clubs. The family's antics are forever in the papers. They're out of control.
